Transtibial prosthesis for recreational swimming
Křemen, Jan ; Mazůrek, Ivan (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
This thesis deals with the construction of an active transtibial prosthesis for recreational swimming. Its aim is to create a working sample of such a prosthesis. The device will primarily serve the patient to move in water - it will be attached to the stump and it will be driven forward. Secondarily, the prosthesis can be used for walking, in the sense that the patient attaches the prosthesis near to a water surface (pool, lake, ocean) and comes with it to the shore. As part of the design and electronics it will be necessary to determine the characteristics of the human resistance in water depending on speed and to determine the necessary propulsion (thrust) strength of the propeller, which will serve as the driving force. Subsequently there will be formed structural variants and selected the best one. This will become default for design and construction of simplified testing device, which will be tested for static thrust. After verifying the functionality and reliability, the final functional sample will be manufactured and tested too.
Case study of ortho-prosthetic care of a patient with a diagnosis of transtibial amputation
Kováčová, Veronika ; Neuwirthová, Svatava (advisor) ; Černý, Pavel (referee)
vi Abstract Title: Case study of ortho-prosthetic care of a patient with the diagnosis of transtibial amputation Objectives: The main goal of this bachelor's thesis is to process a case report of a patient with a detailed description of the production and application of a prosthetic device. Another goal is to process basic theoretical knowledge about anatomy, amputations and prosthetics of the lower limbs with a focus on transtibial prostheses. Methods: The bachelor's thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part summarizes basic knowledge regarding anatomy, amputations and transtibial prosthetics of the lower limbs. The practical part contains a case study of a diabetic patient with the diagnosis of lower leg amputation, which consists of a description of their medical history, measurement taking and the process of manufacturing a prosthetic device. Results: The case report was prepared as part of my professional training at Protetika s.r.o. The result of the work is the creation of a new prosthetic device that will help the patient in his daily life and improve it. Keywords: amputation, prosthesis, transtibial, case report
Case study of ortho-prothetic care of a patient with a diagnosis of bilateral transtibial amputation
Kubáč, Ondřej ; Neuwirthová, Svatava (advisor) ; Šolc, Zdeněk (referee)
Title: Case study of ortho-prothetic care of a patient with a diagnosis of bilateral transtibial amputation Objectives: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to define theoretical knowledge about anatomy, amputation and prosthetics of the lower limbs. In the practical part, a description of the production of the aid and ensuring the patient's self-sufficiency. Methods: The work is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part contains information on the issue of amputation procedures and subsequent prosthetic equipment. The practical part is processed in the form of a case report of a patient with a diagnosis of bilateral amputation of the lower leg, which describes the patient's anamnesis, the course of the initial examination and the process of manufacturing a prosthetic device. Results: The case study was processed on the basis of documentation obtained within the internship in the non-state institution Protetika s.r.o. in the period from March 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021. During this internship, a new prosthesis was made for the patient, which led to an improvement in his quality of life. Keywords: amputation, case study, prosthetics, prosthesis, transtibial
